When journalist, Alex Weeler, travels all the way to a small "ghost town" in Texas from New York to research and explore the area, she may encounter more than she bargained for. Everything seems normal when she arrives, just another town with a great mystery behind it. The town is full of history and old-time Texan culture, but still, there is that one mystery that she wants to uncover and she can't ignore the reason she is there and get distracted by the almost hypnotizing lure of the old town. After a week, Alex starts noticing that things are off.

As she continues to delve deeper into the history, she finds that things aren't always as they seem and some secrets are better left silenced.
